Tất cả các nhà sản xuất lớn cung cấp một gói phần mềm thu thập dữ liệu như là một phần của hệ thống chìa khóa trao tay của họ. Đối với hầu hết các phần, những gói này thực hiện các nhiệm vụ tương tự trong khai thác gỗ và hiển thị số lượng hạt và các dữ liệu liên quan, và in ấn các báo cáo. Những gói phần mềm có sự khác biệt trong cách mà họ cấu trúc dữ liệu, cũng như trong khía cạnh hoạt động. Phần mềm thường là yếu tố quyết định khi. | CHAPTER 20 Manufacturer s Software All of the major manufacturers provide a software data collection package as part of their turnkey system. For the most part these packages perform the same tasks in logging and displaying the particle count and related data and printing reports. The software packages differ in the way in which they structure the data as well as in operational aspects. Software is often the deciding factor when purchasing a turnkey system. This is understandable as the software is the most visible part of the system and provides the daily point of contact for the operator. This is also true because so little is understood about the particle counting equipment. It is our hope that this book will help to alleviate this problem. At any rate it is important to look closely at the particle counting software with consideration for the ease of use and access to the information as well as the usefulness of the many features involved. A plethora of bells and whistles is not necessarily an indication of a more-advanced product. It may be less important to have a fancy system than one that performs the basics and is easy for the operators to learn and work with. Other applications may require all the advanced features available. We are not attempting to rate the packages described below and particular comments about the usefulness of certain features should be taken as opinions which may not be applicable to every situation. Our intent is to aid the reader in evaluating the relative importance of features many which may not otherwise become apparent until months after the system is in operation. These comments should only be taken as a starting point. Most of the manufacturers provide demo versions of their software programs and will gladly provide them to potential customers. Take advantage of this and become familiar with the way these packages work. Let other operators try them as well to get a broader perspective. The computer expert in the plant may .
